- Monday, April 22, 12:12 PM Biogen (BIIB +5.8%) rises after ICI analyst Mark Schoenebaum says the company's Tecfidera multiple sclerosis drug seems to be "crushing" its competitors.

- Friday, April 12, 10:59 AM Elan's (ELN -1.3%) shareholders have overwhelmingly approved a plan to buy back $1B in stock following the sale of Tsabri to Biogen Idec (BIIB +2.4%), as speculation mounts that an earlier takeover indication by Royalty Pharma might be sweetened. Royalty approached ELN in February with an $11 per share potential offer, valuing the company at $6.55B, which was rejected by ELN. Last week, Ireland's Takeover Panel told the pharmaceutical investor to either step up and announce an official takeover offer for the company by May 10, or walk away. Comment!
